TMSFNCAppUpdate antivirus issue

[Egnew_Sidney]

I have a configuration file for TMSFNCAppUpdate as shown below, except I have marked out the URLS.

When I added the second file, my antivirus flagged both AppUpdateTest.exe and AppUpdateTest_.exe as threats. The _.exe files are flagged as "(Command line parameters: AppUupdateTest)."

Threat defeat indicates I must reboot.

I do not know what caused this, but I cannot use the predefined prefixes for the tnsnames.ora file. Do I need to define a custom prefix and use OnConvertPrefix?

Thanks

Hi,

@Egnew_Sidney

Yes, if you want to replace the path with something shorter in the configuration file then you need to use a custom prefix and use the OnConvertPrefix event to replace it.

We don't know the internals of your antivirus and we don't know why does it trigger when replacing the .ora file. It probably flags the two executable (new and old version) because they relate to the process that initiated the replacement of the .ora file. Unfortunately there's not much we can do to prevent this from TTMSFNCAppUpdate.
